Revelation1:10
Verſe 10. I was in the Spirit] Acted by him, and carried out of himſelf, as the demoniack is ſaid to be in the unclean ſpirit, as being acted and agitated by him. Sec the Note on 2 Pet. 1.21.
On the Lords day] The firſt day of the week, the Chriſtian Sabbath, Mat. 24.20. called the Lords-day from Chriſt the authour of it; as is likewiſe the Lords Supper, and the Lords Church, Kirk, [non-Latin text not transcribed], the very word here uſed. To ſanctiſie this Sabbath was in the Primitive times a badge of a Chriſtian. For when the queſtion was asked, Servaſti Dominicum? Keepeſt thou the Sabbath? The anſwer was returned, Chriſtianus ſum. inter[illegible: 2 letters]ittere non poſſum, I am a Chriſtian, I muſt keep the Lords-day.
And heard behinde me] Not, before me: implying, that the Spirit calleth upon us being ſecure, paſſing by, and not regarding thoſe things it cals for.
As of a trumpet] To teach us, that the things here delivered to the Church muſt be ever ſounding in out ears and hearts, indwelling richly in us, Col. 3.16.
